Description

I have my first real garden this year and I wanted somewhere to dry my herbs. So I came up with this the other night using things I could find around my house.

Instructions

1. 

   First I cut an egg carton in half leaving a few of the little flaps for hanging up the rack.

2. 

   I used the top of the carton and cut a piece of fabric a few inches longer than it. (You could also paint or decoupage it.) Then I glued the fabric on and wrapped it around to the back. I cut the fabric at each corner so it wrapped around smoothly.

3. 

   I used paper clips to hold the fabric on while the glue dried.

4. 

   Then I screwed these looped screws in. I'm not sure what they are called, but they came with a picture hanging kit. Nails or screws would work fine. I glued them in the back and let it dry.

5. 

   Then I nailed it on a wall through the little flaps and hung the herbs up! I usually use clear nylon thread to hang them, but you can use just about anything.
